I haven't gotten piles of these offers that are "double" what I'm making at a startup. I don't think working for a startup automatically qualifies me for a 2x salary at Google. Over my career I've gone to progressively smaller companies and made progressively more money. Let's be honest, there aren't that many big companies that are known to be great places to work generally (like Google). And if you don't do well at your interviews with the small number of "cool" big companies... It's not such a straightforward tradeoff. And by the way - my last startup before my current one was one of those "really bad" situations. It was a startup trying to run itself like a big company - more executives than devs.
